Household and similar electrical appliances - Safety - Part 2-25: Particular requirements for microwave ovens, including combination microwave ovens

This European Standard deals with the safety of microwave ovens for household and similar use, their rated voltage being not more than 250 V. This European Standard also deals with combination microwave ovens, for which Annex AA is applicable. This standard also deals with microwave ovens intended to be used on board ships, for which Annex BB is applicable. As far as is practicable, this European Standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons in household and similar environments.  However, in general, it does not take into account: •   children playing with the appliance; •   the use of the appliance by very young children; •   the use of the appliance by young children without supervision.  It is recognized that very vulnerable people may have needs beyond the level addressed in this European Standard. NOTE Z101   Examples of appliance for household environment are appliances for typical housekeeping functions used in the household environment that may also be used by non expert users for typical housekeeping functions: –   in shops and other similar working environments; –   in farm houses; –   by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments; –   in bed and breakfast type environments.  NOTE Z102   Household environments include the dwelling and its associated buildings, the garden, etc. As far as is practicable, this standard deals with the common hazards presented by appliances that are encountered by all persons in and around the home. However, in general, it does not take into account –   persons (including children) whose  •   physical, sensory or mental capabilities; or  •   lack of experience and knowledge  prevents them from using the appliance safely without supervision or instruction;  –   children playing with the appliance. NOTE Z103    Attention is drawn to the fact that -   for appliances intended to be used in vehicles or on board ships or aircraft, additional requirements may be necessary; -   in many countries, additional requirements are specified by the national health authorities, the national authorities responsible for the protection of labour and similar authorities. NOTE Z104    This standard does not apply to -   commercial microwave ovens (EN 60335-2-90) -   industrial microwave heating equipment (EN 60519-6) -   appliances for medical purposes (EN 60601)  -   appliances intended to be used in locations where special conditions prevail, such as the presence of a corrosive or explosive atmosphere (dust, vapour or gas).

Appareils électrodomestiques et analogues - Sécurité - Partie 2-25: Règles particulières pour les fours à micro-ondes, y compris les fours à micro-ondes combinés

La CEI 60335-2-25:2010 traite de la sécurité des fours à micro-ondes à usage domestique et analogue dont la tension assignée n'est pas supérieure à 250 V. Cette norme traite également des fours à micro-ondes combinés, pour lesquels l'Annexe AA s'applique. Cette norme traite également des fours à micro-ondes destinés à être utilisés à bord de navires et pour lesquels l'Annexe BB est applicable. Les appareils qui ne sont pas destinés à un usage domestique normal mais qui peuvent néanmoins constituer une source de danger pour le public, tels que les appareils destinés à être utilisés par des utilisateurs non avertis dans des magasins, chez des artisans et dans des fermes, sont compris dans le domaine d'application de la présente norme. Toutefois, si l'appareil est destiné à être utilisé par des professionnels pour la préparation d'aliments à des fins commerciales, l'appareil n'est pas considéré comme étant uniquement à usage domestique et analogue. Par rapport à l'édition précédente, les principales modifications indiquées ci-après ont été apportées:  - le domaine d'application est étendu aux fours à micro-ondes utilisés à bord de navires, pour mieux distinguer l'usage domestique et analogue et l'usage commercial, et ne tient pas compte des personnes dont les capacités ou le manque d'expérience et de connaissance les empêchent d'utiliser l'appareil en toute sécurité sans surveillance ou instruction, et ne tient pas compte de l'utilisation de l'appareil comme jouet par des enfants;  -l'utilisation prévue est définie pour clarification;  - l'essai d'endurance de porte est rationalisé;  - les remplacements de 22.103, 22.104 et 22.105 autorisent aussi bien des systèmes de verrouillage avec au moins un verrouillage de porte dissimulé que des systèmes de verrouillage sans verrouillage de porte dissimulé;  - le degré de pollution des fours à micro-ondes combinés est défini pour clarification;  - les exigences d'épaisseur du blindage des éléments chauffants lumineux des fours à micro-ondes combinés sont définies pour clarification. Il est recommande que le contenu de cette publication soit entériné au niveau national au plus tôt 12 mois et au plus tard 36 mois après la date de publication.

Gospodinjski in podobni električni aparati - Varnost - 2-25. del: Posebne zahteve za mikrovalovne pečice, vključno s kombiniranimi mikrovalovnimi pečicami (IEC 60335-2-25:2010, spremenjen)

Ta mednarodni standard obravnava varnost mikrovalovnih pečic za gospodinjstvo in podobne namene, katerih nazivna napetost je manjša od 250 V. Ta standard obravnava tudi kombinirane mikrovalovne pečice, za katere se uporablja dodatek AA. Ta standard obravnava tudi mikrovalovne pečice, namenjene uporabi na ladjah, za katere se uporablja dodatek BB. Področje uporabe tega standarda zajema aparate, ki niso namenjeni za običajno gospodinjsko uporabo, vendar so lahko vir nevarnosti za javnost, kot so aparati, namenjeni za laično uporabo v trgovinah, lahki industriji in na kmetijah. Če je aparat namenjen za strokovno uporabo za predelavo hrane za komercialne namene, se ne šteje, da je njegova uporaba le gospodinjska ali podobna. Ta standard v največji možni meri obravnava splošne nevarnosti, ki jih predstavljajo naprave, s katerimi se srečujejo osebe doma in v okolici doma. Vendar na splošno ne upošteva: – oseb (vključno z otroki), ki zaradi – fizičnih, čutilnih ali duševnih zmožnosti ali – neizkušenosti in neznanja aparata ne morejo varno uporabljati brez nadzora ali navodil; – otrok, ki se igrajo z aparatom.
